I would like to take a moment and thank everyone that came out to support The Ride 4 Life. From the racers, the riders, our volunteers, and our family to our KOM/QOM donators.

A huge THANK YOU to Somerset School House for allowing us to base our ride out of your amazing venue and Ramon Orduna for the delicious tacos!

Also Chamois Butt'r for keeping our nether reagions protected from the elements. 😬 And boy did we need it at the start!

Thanks Vie 13 for always designing our killer jerseys to showcase our mission!

Lance is the reason we put it on but he is not why we do it. So many people are affected directly or indirectly by su***de or mental health issues whether it be a friend, a family member or a coworker.

The difference between our event and others is you meet so many new people and get to know their story. Please share our mission and let's keep growing this thing! Remember, It's Okay to not be Okay. 💜🩵

Last night we gave out 2 scholarships to the Staley Choir kiddos! We did things a little different. This year we honored 2 boys who lost their battle with mental health way too soon. In honor of Brian Barnes, Douglas Patsy Barnes , we awarded Kyan Crumley for the boy. In honor of Ethan Schuster, Anna Schuster, we awarded Aarylin Holt for the girls. In addition to the 2 scholarships, I was honored to receive 2 bonus scholarships! In loving memory of Logan LeBlanc, Kristi Teegarden awarded Logan Lawrence. In loving memory of Lance, Trish Redford-Roath and his cousins awarded Olivia Bransfield!

Congratulations to all of won. We keep fighting the stigma. We keep fighting to keep our children's legacy alive. We keep fighting to make mental health acknowledged. YOU MATTER!

Meeting endurance cyclist Taylor Lideen - Athlete was at the very top of my wish list for our time at Unbound Gravel and today we did just that! Like River, Taylor found peace through cycling but cycling alone wasn't enough. I'll post an interview link in the comments for anyone who wants to know more about Taylor but I wanted to thank him for his advocacy and for being so public and open with his story. I wanted him to know we're proud of him for tackling the stigma - possibly the hardest challenge of all.
Also in the photo are our precious friends Lynn and Kurt Wilson who we met at Unbound last year because Lynn was wearing a t-shirt with the purple and teal prevention ribbon. I knew she had a story to share and that I needed to meet her. The Wilson's lost their son Lance (15) and they share their story through a memorial scholarship fund for students at Lance's high school.
Tomorrow, Taylor and Kurt both will compete in the 200 mile race at Unbound and you better believe we'll be cheering them on!
